[Verse 1]
[D]I k[C]now[F][D][C][D]
this dress
I'm wearing
doesn't [C]hide the secret [G]I've
tried [D]concealing[C]
[G]When [D]he left he promised me
that [C]he'd be back
by the [G]time it was [D]revealing
The [C]sun behind the clouds
just cast a crawling shadow
over the fields [D]of [C]clover
And [D]time is running out for me
[C]I wish that he would h[G]urry
down [D]from Dover
I've been gone so long
when I [C]left the snow as
[G]deep upon the [D]ground
She has seen the spring and
summer com[C]ing,
now the [G]leaves are turning [D]brown.
At [C]any time a tiny face will show itself,
the waiting's almost [D]over.
But she won't have a name to give it,
[C]if I don't [G]hurry down from [D]Dover.
My folks weren't understanding
when they [C]found out
[G]they sent me [D]from the home [C]place.
My [D]daddy said if folks found out
[C]he'd be ashamed [G]to ever show [D]his face.
My mom[C]ma said I was a fool,
she did not believe it when I [D]told her
[C]Tha[D]t everything would be alright,
but [C]soon you would be [G]com
ing down [D]from [Eb]Dover
She loved me more than anything,
she [Db]could not refuse [Ab]me
when I [Eb]needed her.
She was the only one I loved
and [Db]she did not [Ab]believe that I was u[Eb]sing her.
He [Db]couldn't leave me here like this,
oh no, it can't be so, it can't [Eb]be over
I wouldn't make her go through this alone,
[Db]though I'll be comin[Ab]g down from Dove[Eb]r
My body aches, the time is here,
it's [Db]lonely in this [Ab]place where [Eb]I'm lying
Our baby has been born,
but something's [Db]wrong,
it's much [Ab]too still, I hear [Eb]no cryin'
I [Db]guess in some strange way she knew she'd
never have a father's arms [Eb]to hold her
[Db]And [Eb]dying was a way of telling me
[Db]he wasn't coming d[Ab]own
from [Eb]Dover
Thank you.
